Thanks to AMOJ for forwarding this nice collection of articles about the opposition to the encroaching police state.
It is encouraging that main line newspapers, like the CS Monitor and even some TV news shows, are beginning to express doubts about Dubya's activities in trashing the Constitution. Maybe there is a reason to have hope after all!
I strongly urge you to follow the link to the CS Monitor article mentioned herein.
